Over the last two decades, interest in translation around the world has increased beyond any predictions. International bestseller lists now contain large numbers of translated works, and writers from Latin America, Africa, India and China have joined the lists of eminent, bestselling European writers and those from the global English-speaking world. Despite this, translators tend to be invisible, as are the processes they follow and the strategies they employ when translating. The Translator as Writer bridges the divide between those who study translation and those who produce translations, t

"Fragmented, buried, and largely lost, the classical past presents formidable obstacles to anyone who would seek to know it. 'Deep Classics' is the study of these obstacles and, in particular, of the way in which the contemplation of the classical past resembles -- and has even provided a model for -- other kinds of human endeavor. This v. offers a new way to understand the modalities and aims of Classics itself, through the ages. Its individual chapters draw fruitful connections between the reception of the classical and current concerns in philosophy of mind, cognitive theory, epistemology, media studies, sense studies, aesthetics, queer theory and eco-criticism. What does the study of the ancient past teach us about our encounters with our own more recent but still elusive memories? What do our always partial reconstructions of ancient sites tell us about the limits of our ability to know our own world, or to imagine our future? What does the reader of the lacunose and corrupted literatures of antiquity learn thereby about literature and language themselves? What does a shattered statue reveal about art, matter, sensation, experience, life? Does the way in which these vestiges of the past are encountered -- sitting in a library, standing in a gallery, moving through a ruin -- condition our responses to them and alter their significance? And finally, how has the contemplation of antiquity helped to shape seemingly unrelated disciplines, including not only other humanistic and scientific epistemologies but also non-scholarly modes and practices? In asking these and similar questions, Deep Classics makes a pointed intervention in the study of the classical tradition, now more widely known as 'reception studies'."--Bloomsbury Publishing Fragmented, buried, and largely lost, the classical past presents formidable obstacles to anyone who would seek to know it.

This text aims to explode two notions that are commonplace in American cultural histories of the 19th century: that the spread of literature was a simple force for the democratization of taste, and that there was a body of 19th-century literature that reflected "a nation of readers".

Das Buch verfolgt die Kommunikation von Autoren und Verlegern, die ab 1933 aus den deutschsprachigen Gebieten in die Niederlande flohen, und erforscht ihre Rezeption und Weiterwirkung in den Perioden vor, während und nach dem Krieg. Durch die Exilverlage Querido und Allert de Lange wurde Amsterdam zum Zentrum der Produktion und des Vertriebs der Exilliteratur. Die niederländisch-deutschen Verflechtungen waren international vernetzt, aber der Markt für die Bücher innerhalb der Niederlande war relativ groß und niederländische Übersetzer und Rezensenten bemühten sich um ihre Verbreitung. Einige Autoren ließen sich langjährig in Holland nieder. Fallbeispiele einzelner Schriftsteller und Verleger bilden ein Gewebe von Lebens- und Rezeptionsgeschichten bis heute. Durch die verlängerte Zeitperspektive unterscheidet sich dieses Buch von der bisherigen Exilforschung. Es zeigt Veränderungen in der Wahrnehmung der Exilliteratur unter sich wandelnden gesellschaftlichen und politischen Bedingungen. Durch die Verknüpfung individueller Geschichten wurde versucht, einer modernen Darstellung der Literaturgeschichte gerecht zu werden.

Alexandrie au IIIe siècle avant J.-C., une ville nouvelle dans un monde nouveau : depuis les conquêtes d’Alexandre, la culture grecque s’étend et se diversifie. Alexandrie et sa Bibliothèque : un centre intellectuel sans précédent où les poètes sont aussi astronomes, grammairiens, mathématiciens. La littérature qui naît dans ce contexte est bien sûr à l’image de ce renouvellement et de cette ouverture culturelle. C’est ce que montre ici Christophe Cusset à travers l’étude de la réécriture chez les poètes alexandrins. Ces poètes – Callimaque, Théocrite, Apollonios de Rhodes notamment – créent une nouvelle poésie en étroite continuité avec la littérature grecque des siècles passés. Comment allient-ils l’ancien et le nouveau ? Que reprennent-ils à Homère ou à Pindare ? Comment lisent-ils et comment comprennent-ils ces textes désormais classiques ? À la lumière de la critique littéraire moderne, cette étude s’attache à éclaircir les données de l’esthétique alexandrine en mesurant au plus juste, soit sur des points techniques précis, soit dans une lecture plus large, la part de l’érudition et la place du jeu poétique dans une intertextualité toujours en effervescence et ambiguë.
